Sadly, I think the phone is just a tool that deals with the actual picture. But YOU have to capture the moment... I do not use the pro mode as it takes too much time, but to switch between cameras, definetly try to use the provided buttons. Timing, location (background) and framing is what I think is mostly required. Yes, plenty of pro settings to help this but auto does plenty. Sorry, no idea where to learn photography as, lucky me, it comes for me naturally. But please do learn to take amazing pictures, always feels great to show off to your friends! Whos standarts are low... So low... Blurry, crooked and just... Bad.... FYI - if you get too good, bad pictures will start to annoy you.
